[Emperor Chapter 15] Spring Palace

"Little Eight, what are you looking at!"

Jing Chen was sitting alone in his seat, staring at a book in a daze, when he suddenly heard the voice of the Fourth Prince Jing Hui beside him.

He looked up, and there was a dark spot under his eyes, which were covered by the mask, and he looked like he had not slept well. Jing Hui was lying on Jing Wen, the youngest eighth prince in the school, and reached out to touch the thing that he was hunched over and anxious to hide.

"Nothing! Fourth brother, give it back to me!"

Jing Wen was only thirteen years old now, and his height was just up to the waist of Jing Hui, who was already twenty years old. The book in his hand was snatched away by Jing Hui, and he jumped up to grab it back but couldn't reach it.

Jing Chen came very early, and of course he noticed that Jing Wen had been sneaking around and looking at something with his head down before the Taifu arrived. But he was thinking about other things, so he didn't try to find out what his adopted brother was looking at.

"Hey," Jing Hui flipped through the book and stared, "Little Eight, you haven't even grown up yet, and you dare to look at pornographic pictures!?"

Jing Chen looked sideways when he heard that, staring at the thing in Jing Hui's hand.

"Nonsense! You haven't grown up yet!" Seeing that he couldn't snatch it away, Jing Wen blushed and said stubbornly, "Tonight I'll ask my mother to arrange a concubine for me!"

Although Jing Wen's biological mother was a maid who the emperor had a love affair with, he was adopted by the childless imperial concubine when he was born. The imperial concubine treated him as her own son and spoiled him to the point of lawlessness, making him a real little tyrant in the palace.

He was just ordered by the emperor to be under house arrest for a month because of teasing the tutor. He was just released today, but he has come up with new tricks.

"Do you understand? Hahaha," the fourth prince turned over the picture and pointed it to Jing Wen, "Yo, you have quite a lot of poses in this picture. Come on, tell your brother which one you like best?"

Jing Chen was very close to the two of them. The book in Jing Hui's hand was opened wide, and the pictures inside just caught his sight.

He fled in a hurry last night and returned to the bedroom. The touching picture of the naked little eunuch kept coming to his mind.

Jing Chen has never been taught about human affairs. The only thing he knows about gender is that women have bulging breasts and men have nipples.

Last night he could see so clearly that the eunuch did not have a bird under his crotch, but... but wasn't she a eunuch? Eunuchs... also have breasts?

Covered in the quilt, Jing Chen had a night of crazy dreams.

One moment he dreamed that the eunuch was lying on the bed, naked, crying out in pain to him with tears in his eyes; the next moment he dreamed that a woman who looked like a eunuch was sitting on the wall playfully, with long hair draped over her shoulders, smiling at him with her head tilted; the next moment he dreamed that the eunuch ran to him in panic and asked him why there were two lumps on his chest. He was about to reach out to touch it... and then it was dawn.

He went to the Shangshufang alone in a daze, and kept telling himself in his heart that he might have been dazzled last night, or that his eunuch's breasts might have grown bigger than other men's. However, when he saw these pictures, the young man who had been deceiving himself since last night was finally torn open by the various shameful postures in the pictures, and the unreasonableness he wanted to ignore.

It turned out that his little dumpling was not a eunuch.

But a woman.

Jing Chen did not have the anger of being deceived as Chu Jiao guessed. As long as Chu Jiao was still by his side, nothing else mattered to him. He could slowly understand the reasons for her concealment, and he could also keep the secret for her forever.

What's more.

Jing Chen could not deny that after being frightened by the fact that the personal eunuch was a woman, what surged in his heart was more joy.

A woman...

Jing Chen chewed on this word, and suddenly there surged an incomparable yearning for the future in his heart.

He had no ambitions, he just wanted to survive. Later, he met Xiao Dumpling, and he wanted to live with her. However, it was so difficult to survive in this palace, and he could only keep getting stronger.

He didn't want to fight for power, but his identity had brought him troubles; he didn't want to have three palaces and six courtyards like his father, but as a prince, he was destined to marry.

Having one person in his life was enough. He was originally worried about what to do if he married and his wife bullied Xiao Dumpling?

Now it's all right.

Xiao Dumpling is a woman.

Then, he can marry her.
